Sometimes I wish I was a Conservative.

[TOhioLiberal]

Mind you, I'm not saying that all conservatives are mindless Bush-bots but the vast majority certainly act like they are.

I have occasionally tried to engage a few of them in political discourse. I have tried, unsuccessfully usually, to get them to 'see the light.'

Watch them as their eyes glaze over. Watch as emotion fights logic. See them as they shuffle around, mentally contorting around the facts until one of two things happen:

1. Bush-bot calls you names, ie. left-wing crackhead (my all time favorite (NOT!))

2. Bush-bot claims that you are 'just a Bush hater, you want the terrorists to win, we're fighting them over there', blah, blah, blah.

It's so easy for them. No serious thought required.

Just for one day, I'd like to have 'no serious thought required.' No concerns about our civil liberties being trashed, no concerns about the mess that Bushco will leave behind, no worries about global warming.

Unfortunately, it's not gonna happen anytime soon.
